A Tropical Heatwave Cocktail with Frooty Werk by Mix Me Co.

Some cocktails are about balance. Others are about surprise. This one delivers both.

The Frooty Werk cocktail is where bright tropical fruit meets a subtle kick of heat — a drink that feels relaxed and beachy at first sip, then finishes with just enough spice to keep things interesting. With Mix Me Co., creating a cocktail this layered doesn’t require a blender, fresh fruit, or complicated prep. One stick pack does all the work.

Whether you’re hosting friends, pre-gaming for a night out, or unwinding solo, this cocktail proves that bold flavor can still be effortless.

Why This Cocktail Works

Pineapple and coconut are a classic tropical pairing — sweet, creamy, and instantly transportive. But Frooty Werk adds a twist: a gentle jalapeño heat that cuts through the sweetness and keeps the drink from feeling flat or ordinary.

The result is a cocktail that’s refreshing yet complex. Sweet without being cloying. Spicy without being overpowering. And because Mix Me Co. delivers these flavors in a perfectly portioned liquid stick pack, every drink comes out balanced — no guessing, no measuring, no wasted ingredients.

Frooty Werk Cocktail Recipe


What You’ll Need

  • 1 Mix Me Co. Frooty Werk stick pack
  • 1.5 - 2 oz tequila or dark rum
  • Ice
  • Optional garnish: pineapple wedge or jalapeño slice

Step-by-Step Instructions


1. Choose Your Spirit
Tequila brings brightness and a clean finish, while dark rum adds depth and warmth. Either works beautifully with Frooty Werk’s tropical-spicy profile.

2. Add Ice
Fill a rocks glass or highball generously with ice. Proper ice keeps the drink crisp and prevents over-dilution.

3. Add Frooty Werk
Pour one stick pack directly over the ice and spirit. The liquid format blends instantly — no shaking or muddling required.

4. Stir Well
Stir for 10–15 seconds until the drink is evenly chilled and fully integrated.

5. Garnish (Optional)
A pineapple wedge highlights the tropical notes, while a thin jalapeño slice adds visual drama and a hint of extra heat.

Sip and enjoy.

Flavor Notes & Pairings

This cocktail opens with bright pineapple and smooth coconut, followed by a subtle jalapeño warmth that lingers just enough to keep each sip exciting.

  • With Tequila: Fresh, vibrant, and lightly spicy
  • With Dark Rum: Richer, warmer, and slightly more indulgent

Looking for a non-alcoholic option? Swap the spirit for sparkling water or coconut water for a refreshing mocktail that still delivers bold flavor.

Make It Your Own

Frooty Werk is designed to be flexible:

  • Add sparkling water to turn it into a non-alcoholic beverage
  • Serve over crushed ice for a frozen-cocktail vibe (without a blender)
  • Batch multiple servings in a pitcher for easy entertaining

Because each stick pack is precisely portioned, every drink stays consistent — whether you’re making one cocktail or twelve.
